The Tri Color Celosia is a vibrant warm-season flowering annual celebrated for its stunning, multi-hued blooms. Sold in a large 3.65-gallon nursery container (approximately 12 inches in diameter), this well-established plant is ready for transplanting into garden beds, borders, or decorative outdoor containers.

Celosia produces feathery or crested flower heads in vivid combinations of orange, pink, red, and yellow with contrasting foliage — creating a dramatic tri-color effect that makes it a standout in any summer garden. Plants typically grow 8 to 24 inches tall, with blooms emerging from midsummer through early autumn. The long-lasting flowers are also excellent as cut flowers and can be dried for floral arrangements and crafts.

For best performance, plant in a location with full sun (6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day). Celosia thrives in well-draining, fertile soil enriched with compost or organic matter. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but never waterlogged, as overwatering can cause root problems. Ideal daytime growing temperatures range from 70–85°F. In most U.S. regions it is grown as an annual (USDA Zones 2–9) and as a perennial in warmer climates (Zones 10–12). Fertilize monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer, increasing frequency to every 2–4 weeks once blooming begins. Deadhead faded flowers to encourage continued bloom throughout the season.
